Jones is comfortably the best keeper we've had in goal this season. About time we started developing our youth players.

He may well be the best out of Jones, Mitchell and Dahlberg, however none of them are good enough right now.

Further to this Jackson off after half an hour as he's struggling.

He's no better than Horton - why is he constantly picked over our own player?

Horton not on the bench so Rowe now being totally wasted at full back

If he's the best of the 3 he should be playing - how else is a young, inexperienced player going to improve so he does become 'good enough' in your eyes?

This is dogshit. f**king hell. Its hard to believe we didn't touch the ball in the first 15mins at home against Gillingham. And then after that when we are in control of possession, almost nothing going forward. It's so difficult to see what we are trying to do on the ball.

Dreadful.

Post by: Scooter on March 12, 2022, 03:48:21 pm
This is a really poor game. There is no fight and minimal effort. Matt Smith is our best player and only just come on

We've pulled off quite a stunt this year.

Signed the worst striker in our history on loan. Binned him off and replaced him with a worse one still.

Post by: Sammy Chung was King on March 12, 2022, 04:02:10 pm
Give them an opportunity for ten fifteen minutes, then get Gardner on, and Bostock. Agard or Hiwula and push Martin wide left Galbraith just behind the strikers. No excuse today we have the opportunity to stay up take it! .

Post by: Redroy on March 12, 2022, 04:02:56 pm
All I can see that we are trying to do is give it to Josh and let him shoot. I don't see any other patterns. Maybe I'm missing something. Not boding well for next season that we still haven't a clue how to attack and are still shipping piss poor goals

We signed Mipo and Agard, yet wouldn’t the wages for these two have covered the wage of one John Marquis?? At least we would’ve been guaranteed goals, physicality and a player not prone to injury. One can only dream.

I'd stick Dodoo on the corner flag to catch one of Seaman's or Knoyles crosses. Put Bostock on just in front of our defense to collect Odubeko's touches.
